haggisv,

Was it difficult to become an Armstrong dealer? Their products are almost mythical outside of Japan.

Of course, you will have to te$t them all and publish reviews as their performance is also something of a mystery. :rofl: I'd be thrilled if one of those sponged LPs turned out to be durable and adept at attacking.

It would interest me if you elaborated on how it worked. That is a black box area of table tennis that I do not understand. Unless it involves trade secrets or secret handshakes.

The Vector sheet looks like a good sriver upgrade/alternative.

Some of the pips do look promising as well.

Yes they mention something about that in their description on the Armstrong website (in Japanese), but then there's more stuff about their unique type of heat treatment they use when making the rubber, which I think think is supposed to make it more durable and more elastic.
